The rain did not stop. Since Yue Qing had made it clear to her earlier, she would not be a demon in the future.

Today, it was raining cats and dogs and the temple was filled with refugees. The women who came to pray did not dare to go out because they were afraid that the disease would spread to them.

Gu Liuyan found an excuse and snuck into Yue Qing's room.

Chang Yiqin didn't look good when she saw her. Gu Daiyan looked carefully at the letter Yue Qing had brought with her, puzzled. "Third prince has just arrived. The flood must not have arrived yet."

"Not yet, but it's going to rain in a few days. Something's going to happen in about a month." Yue Qing also nodded her head. She had read through the contents of the letter one by one. It was nothing more than about managing the river and dealing with the flood.

Gu Mingyan read and wrote as she read, before carefully tidying up the area and placing it in Yue Qing's hands. "It shouldn't be easy to build a dam in these places, for example, compared to Sophora County, which is located at a higher location, surrounded by numerous rivers, and is not affected by the flood, but if you go downstream, it will lead to a rapid flow of water. It would be better to just dig downstream, build more trees, dig additional channels, and go to the nearby counties."

Gu Danyan was the only one who cared about national affairs. Other than Yue Qing and Chang Yiqin, who would occasionally say a few things that were wrong, most of the time, it was Gu Danyan who decided to talk.

After speaking for six hours and not finishing it yet, Chang Yiqin could not sit still any longer. "There's still a month until this flood. Why don't we discuss it later?"

"You can all rest first." Only then did Gu Daiyan see that the two of them were not quite up to par, and he called out to the ghost lightly, "Bring me a map as well, and I've also brought a few local records. There are a few basins that are hard to defend against, so it's best if we move to them.

Yue Qing and Chang Yiqin were still gasping for breath.

Gu Danyan looked through it again and rubbed his head, "Phantom, is this place not suitable for planting trees? There seem to be a lot of stones here. If it's planted here this year, it might be wasted in the next two years."

Phantom Demon also stole a glance at it and learned a lot from it. He nodded, "Indeed, how about we get some lawns? Even if we can't drain them, they won't be able to leak all the information."

"Makes sense. If the dam was built, these villages wouldn't be able to afford it. If the water was sold to the neighboring towns, it would be good to use the money to build the dam." Gu Daiyan gently bit the pen handle.

The ghost patted her head, "Do not bite the quill. Even the youth has been corrupted by you."

"Got it." Gu Danyan quickly covered his forehead and continued writing. He said, "We have nothing better to do here. Tell the Transcendent Daoist to make some steamed buns and bring us some delicious pickles."

"En, but you haven't practiced your blade techniques in the past few days. I'll bring it back for you later, or your wrist will get old." Ghost nodded and quickly walked out.

"That's fine, let's practice the left hand this time. When the weather clears, I will follow little master Xu Chen to clean up the backyard." Gu Danyan smiled but didn't raise his head. After a while, he continued to study.

Yue Qing and Chang Yiqin heard their conversation and looked at each other.

Why did he feel that the relationship between Gu Mingyan and the ghosts was somewhat subtle?

At night, the rain outside was heavier and many refugees were coughing from the cold wind. In order to protect their safety, Gu Daiyan decided to stay in the same room as Yue Qing, in case anyone saw him sneaking back at night.

On the other hand, Phantom Shadow's movement technique was not bad. He came and went without a trace.

Yawning, Gu Danyan brought some candles over. Yue Qing sat down at the side and said, "Planting trees like this, if Shan Hong didn't come, wouldn't it be a waste of money?"

Silver coins are taken from the people, and are used by the people to plant trees. It is not meant to stop the torrent, but to prevent the torrent, and to prevent the torrent, you have to prepare quite a few bags of sand to go downstream and then use dozens of small ditches to divide the river. Even so, it is impossible for the flood to leave unscathed. Gu Danyan frowned and continued to narrate the details to Yue Qing.

They chatted for a long time, all the way until the next morning. Finally, Gu Danyan was lying lazily on the table, and the pain in his leg was so intense that ghost was squatting at her feet and helping her tie up a specially made leg guard, while helplessly saying: "You stayed up late again, I'm afraid you won't be able to get fat anymore."

"If I don't finish, my mind will be in a mess." Gu Moyan walked over and put her arm around the ghost's shoulder: "This wheelchair makes my back ache. Later, find a time to carry me back, I'm going to sleep for a while."

The ghost carefully glanced at Chang Yi Qin and Yue Qing who were standing beside him. When he saw them looking away, he said helplessly, "It was all in full view."

Gu Danyan raised his eyebrows – what he wanted was for everyone to look at him.

This time, the ghost finally understood what was going on. He glanced at Yue Qing and carried Gu Danyan on his back, "You, Tian Tian, only know how to act coquettishly."

"Then don't carry it." Gu Daiyan smacked the ghost's head proudly.

The ghost only said a few words to Yue Qing and Chang Yiqin before carefully leaving with Gu Tinyan on his back.

After the two of them had left, Yue Qing recalled what they had said that night and wrote it down one by one. Chang Yiqin said, "It looks like Gu Liuyan has a better relationship with that subordinate. How could His Highness like this kind of woman?"

"Let's observe for a while. If Gu Danyan really doesn't like His Highness, we can rest assured." Yue Qing waved her hand. "Madam, please come over and discuss it with me. I'm afraid this letter will take a whole day to write."

Chang Yiqin hurried over to help him write.

However, no one knew about what had happened to Gu Panyan. When she woke up, it was already evening. She hurriedly ate her dinner and rushed out, wearing her veil. She diagnosed the refugees one by one without leaving their names behind.

While Phantom Demon was helping her, he didn't forget to remind her, "When you were asleep, Hua Li had already gone to find Gu Zixian. A few days ago, Lan did mention Gu Zixian, but it didn't look like she was surprised."

Gu Liuyan nodded his head in understanding: "That's not bad. When that time comes, Gu Cheng will definitely contact Gu Zixian, who will also want to make a ruckus in the King's Mansion. However, I'll have to remind Meng Xu and let him know about this. At least leave him with a clue."

"When we go back, we will say that we will be leaving after five days. However, the prince is very strange. He insisted on having Su Yu Wan leave the White Horse Temple to accompany her." The ghost softly said.

Gu Danyan froze and then smiled helplessly: "Duan Chengxuan was afraid that I would get into a fight with Su Yuwan, but if he didn't let me go and let Su Yuwan go, it would be good for me. After all, Su Yuwan's body is weak."
